It is a direct cross-reference to the Yamaha 5GH-13440-20-00 filter, so it installs using the same fitment as the factory part on covered models. This filter is intended for use during routine oil changes on Yamaha F15C, F20, F25, F40A, T50, and F50 outboards, where the manufacturer specifies 10W-30 FC-W oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause oil capacity differs by outboard model, the correct fill amount ranges from 1.7 to 2.1 quarts depending on which engine the filter is installed on -- see the fitment table below for the exact capacity per model. Keeping the correct filter in rotation for scheduled maintenance helps protect the internal engine components of these Yamaha outboards and supports consistent oil pressure and lubrication during operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sierra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18-8700\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM Cross Reference:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5GH-13440-20-00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yamaha Outboard Oil \u0026amp; Filters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.21 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Oil:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10W-30 FC-W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOil Capacity, F15C \/ F20:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.8 L \/ 1.9 Qt.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOil Capacity, F25:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.7 L \/ 1.8 Qt.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOil Capacity, F40A \/ T50 \/ F50:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.0 L \/ 2.1 Qt.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYamaha F15C, 2007 - 2012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYamaha F20, 2007 - 2012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYamaha F25, 2009 - Current\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYamaha F40A, 2001 - Current\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYamaha T50, 2005 - Current\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYamaha F50, 2005 - Current\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e5GH-13440-20-00\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the Sierra 18-8700 oil filter fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sierra 18-8700 fits Yamaha F15C and F20 outboards (2007 - 2012), F25 (2009 - Current), F40A (2001 - Current), and T50 and F50 (2005 - Current).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Sierra 18-8700 the same as the Yamaha 5GH-13440-20-00 filter?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Sierra 18-8700 is a direct cross-reference to the Yamaha 5GH-13440-20-00 oil filter and fits the same covered outboard models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much oil do I need with the 18-8700 filter?\u003c\/strong\u003e Oil capacity depends on the outboard model: 1.8 L \/ 1.9 Qt.
